This is a fantastic choice for anyone wishing to explore Edinburgh. Location cannot be beaten with plenty of shops and food options around and the wonderful castle as a centerpiece. All the nice touches that make a stay enjoyable from coffee to shortbread, washer and dryer, and everything else you could need. Great customer service as well as we received a call back within 2 minutes of submitting a question about our booking. I would absolutely stay here again and would recommend it highly.

Stylish apartment and perfectly located 😊

A perfect , well designed compact space 👍 Well equipped with great quality appliances, gorgeous Arran Aromatics toiletries, sumptuous bedding and fluffy towels. Ideally located for us as we were going to a concert at the Usher Hall🎸. And for dinner at Wagamama 🍜 Easy parking close by . The negative reviews I read sadly reflect the damage done to these beautiful apartments by guests. Our toilet roll holder had obviously come detached previously with some force and I done imagine it’s easy to get repairs done between guests. People should treat accommodation away from home with more care.🙄

Poor quality and overpriced

Location is perfect, with lovely views of the castle. However, we felt for the price paid for a 4-night stay (£750), the condition of property was extremely poor, with excessive damage and repairs needed as pictured. Of the 4 windows, only one blind was working meaning we could only benefit from a very small amount of natural light throughout the day and unable to close the bedroom blind at all. The bathroom towel rail was hanging off the wall and not working too. In addition, the wardrobe in the bedroom was filthy and full of thick dust. We wouldn’t stay here again.

Good location. Nice design, but not so stunning like in pictures. Quite a lot gaps like a broken window curtains, non-working light bulb, an empty dishwashing liquid dispenser, and all that stuff, that were not fixed during our half-week stay.

Good but could be better

Overall we had a very pleasant and comfortable stay. However, we were a little disappointed that the Nespresso machine had very few pods provided and it required unique pods that could only be purchased with a UK business account. Other amenities were overlooked. For example, only a single drinking glass was provided, only a few rolls of toilet paper and paper towels were provided, and there was no dish soap for a stay of almost 2 weeks for three people.

We were not happy with the cleanliness of the property when we checked in. The bedsheets had stains, beds not made and there was human hair on sheets. The owner attended to them the next day, so we (4 including kids ) had to sleep on a single bed that night which was needless to say very inconvenient. Also our clothes got stuck in the washing machine ( probably it didn’t operate right ) and the owner wasn’t willing to ship them to us ( we were ready to pay shipping charges ) upon repeated requests. Overall not a great experience and we will never again book such Airbnb style facilities.

The space is new so very clean, spacious and convenient. Only thing is, communication is tough. If you don’t have a sim, it will be very difficult to get a response with them. They never responded to my email & didn’t pick up the phone but responded the text.

Accommodations fit for royals

This place was even better than I imagined. Excellent location, easy access, and everything you need. It was spotlessly clean and obviously recently renovated/updated due to the excellent condition of everything. Chargers everywhere, modern appliances, and comfy bed.

Property was excellent;HOWEVER, one big problem and a few minor recommendations. ALL the interior doorknobs are almost impossible to turn. Some aged folks and those with problems using their hands to turn a jar lid or door knob could find themselves locked in the bathroom! Replace ALL knows with knobs containing fulcrums. Also have a printed handout to tell folks how to operate the shower, dishwasher,etc. Non Europeans are unfamiliar with some of these product. Also have a list of recommended restaurants etc. The place was impeccably clean and new. Overall a really nice visit, but change those doorknobs!!!
